Be Quick Or Be Dead
Dickinson/Gers Covered in sinners and dripping with gilt Making you money from slime and from filth Parading your bellies in ivory towers Investing your lives in your schemes and your powers *You got to watch them - Be quick or be dead Snake eyes in heaven - The thief in your head You've got to watch them - Be quick or be dead Snake eyes in heaven - The thief in your head... Be quick! Or be dead! Be quick! Or be dead! See... what's ruling all our lives See... who's pulling the strings... I bet you won't fall on your face... Your belly will hold you in place .. The serpent is crawling inside of your ear He says you must vote for what you want to hear Don't matter what's wrong as long as you're alright So pull yourself studid and rob yourself blind. *You got to watch them - Be quick or be dead Snake eyes in heaven - The thief in your head You've got to watch them - Be quick or be dead Snake eyes in heaven - The thief in your head... Be quick! Or be dead! Be quick! Or be dead ............. x2 |

From Here To Eternity
Harris She fell in love with his greasy machine She leaned over wiped his kickstart clean She'd never seen the beast before But she left there wanting more more more But when she was walking on down the road She heard a sound that made her heart explode He whispered to her to get on the back "I'll take you on a ride from here to eternity" Hell ain't a bad place Hell is from here to eternity Hell ain't a bad place Hell is from here to eternity She must be having one of her crazy dreams She'd never sat on a piece so mean It made her feel like's she's on cloud nine She even thought she heard the engine sigh But like all dreams that come to an end They took a tumble at the devil's bend The beast and Charlotte they were two of a kind They'd always take the line... from here to eternity *Hell ain't a bad place Hell is from here to eternity Hell ain't a bad place Hell is from here to eternity Hell ain't a bad place Hell is from here to eternity.. .. *repeat |

Give me the sense to wonder
To wonder if I'm free Give me a sense of wonder To know I can be me Give me the strength to hold my head up Spit back in their face Don't need no key to unlock this door Gonna break down the walls Break out of this bad place Can I play with madness - the prophet stared at his crystal ball Can I play with madness - there's no vision there at all Can I play with madness - the prophet looked and he laughed at me Can I play with madness - he said you're blind too blind to see I screamed aloud to the old man I said don't lie don't say you don't know I say you'll pay for your mischief In this world or the next Oh and then he fixed me with a freezing glance And the hell fires raged in his eyes He said do you want to know the truth son - I'll tell you the truth Your soul's gonna burn in the lake of fire Can I play with madness - the prophet stared at his crystal ball Can I play with madness - there's no vision there at all Can I play with madness - the prophet looked and he laughed at me Can I play with madness - he said you're blind too blind to see Can I play with madness - the prophet stared at his crystal ball Can I play with madness - there's no vision there at all Can I play with madness - the prophet looked and he laughed at me Can I play with madness - he said you're blind too blind to see |

Maybe one day I'll be an honest man
Up till now I'm doing the best I can Long roads, long days, of sunrise, to sunset Sunrise to sunset Dream on brother, while you can Dream on sister, I hope you find the one All of our lives, covered up quickly by the tides of time Spend your days full of emptiness Spend your years full of loneliness Wasting love, in a desperate caress Rolling shadows of nights Dream on brother, while you can Dream on sister, I hope you find the one All of our lives, covered up quickly by the tides of time Sands are flowing and the lines are in your hand In your eyes I see the hunger, and the desperate cry that tears the night ** |

Trace your way back 50 years
To the Glow of Dresden - blood and tears In the black above by the cruel search light Men will die and men will fight - yeah! Who shot who and who fired first? Dripping death to whet the bloodthirst No radar lock on - skin and bone The bomber boys are going home Climb into the sky never wonder why - Tailgunner You're a Tailgunner Nail that Fokker kill that son, Gonna blow your guts out with my gun, The weather forecasts good for War Cologne and Frankfurt? Have some more! Tail and Charlie in the boiling sky The Enola Gay was my last try Now that this tailgunner's gone No more Bombers (just one big bomb) Climb into the sky never wonder why - Tailgunner You're a Tailgunner |

(Smith/Dickinson/Harris)
Love is a razor and I walked the line on that silver blade Slept in the dust with his daughter, her eyes red with The slaughter of innocence But I will pray for her I will call her name out loud I would bleed for her If only I could see her now Living on a razors edge Balancing on a ledge Living on a razors edge The evil that men do lives on and on..... The evil that men do lives on and on..... The evil that men do lives on and on..... The evil that men do lives on and on..... Circle of fire my baptism of joy at an end it seems The seventh lamb slain, the book of life opens before me But I will pray for you And some day I may return Don't you cry for me Beyond is where I learn |

Afraid To Shoot Strangers
Harris Lying awake at night I wipe the sweat from my brow But it's not the fear 'cos I'd rather go now Trying to visualise the horrors that will lay ahead The desert sand mound a burial ground When it comes to the time are we partners in crime? When it comes to the time we'll be ready to die God let us go now and finish what's to be done Thy Kingdom Come Thy shall be done... on earth Trying to justify to ourselves the reasons to go Should we live and let live Forget or forgive But how can we let them go on this way? The reign of terror corruption must end And we know deep down there's no other way No trust, no reasoning, no more to say. .. Afraid to shoot strangers Afraid to shoot strangers. .. Afraid to shoot strangers (x8) .. Afraid to shoot strangers... (x4 ) |

Can't understand what is happening to me,
This isn't real, this is only a dream, But I never have felt, no I never have felt this way before, I'm looking down on my body below, I lie asleep in the midst of a dream, Is it now could it be that the angel of death has come for me? I can't believe that really my time has come, I don't feel ready, there's so much left undone, And it's my soul and I'm not gonna let it get away. Chorus: Heaven can wait, Heaven can wait, Heaven can wait, Heaven can wait til another day. [Reapeat chorus] I have a lust for the Earth below And Hell itself is my only foe, 'Cause I've no fear of dying, I'll go when I'm good and ready, I snatch a glimpse of the light's eternal rays, I see a tunnel, I stand amazed, At all of the people standing there in front of me, Into the paths of rightness I'll be led, Is this the place where the living join the dead? I wish I knew this was only just a nightmare. [Chorus *2] Take my hand, I'll lead you to the promised land, Take my hand, I'll give you immortality, Eternal youth, I'll take you to the other side, To see the truth, the path for you is decided. Oh Oh * lots. My body tingles, I feel so strange, I feel so tired, I feel so drained, And I'm wondering if I'll ever be the same again, Is this in limbo or in Heaven or Hell? Maybe I'm going down there as well, I can't accept my soul will drift forever. I feel myself floating back down to Earth, So could this be the hour of my rebirth? Or have I died or will I wake from dreaming? [Chorus] |

Feel the sweat break on my brow
Is it me or is it shadows that are Dancing on the walls Is this a dream or is it now Is this a vision or normality I see Before my eyes I wonder why I wonder how That it seems the powers getting stronger Every day I feel a strength an inner fire But I'm scared I won't be able to control it anymore There's a time to live and a time to die When it's time to meet the maker There's a time to live but isn't it strange That as soon as you're born you're dying Just by looking through your eyes He could see the future penetrating right In through your mind See the truth and see your lies But for all his power couldn't foresee his own demise There's a time to live and a time to die When it's time to meet the maker There's a time to live but isn't it strange That as soon as you're born you're dying... ... and reborn again? |

I am a man who walks alone
And when I'm walking a dark road At night or strolling through the park When the light begins to change I sometimes feel a little strange A little anxious when it's dark Fear of the dark, fear of the dark I have constant fear that something's always near Fear of the dark, fear of the dark I have a phobia that someone's always there Have you run your fingers down the wall And have you felt your neck skin crawl When you're searching for the light? Sometimes when you're scared to take a look At the corner of the room You've sensed that something's watching you Have you ever been alone at night Thought you heard footsteps behind And turned around and no one's there? And as you quicken up your pace You find it hard to look again Because you're sure there's someone there Watching horror films the night before Debating witches and folklores The unknown troubles on your mind Maybe your mind is playing tricks You sense, and suddenly eyes fix On dancing shadows from behind Fear of the dark, fear of the dark I have constant fear that something's always near Fear of the dark, fear of the dark I have a phobia that someone's always there When I'm walking a dark road I am a man who walks alone |
